    We were asked to locate a XK140 convertible suitable for restoration. We went one better and found a wire wheeled, C Type headed special equipment in very original and complete condition - what a starting point for a concours d'elegance champion!

    I purchased this car from Jim Byrne for Ken Graham and fully restored the car to factory original, except conversion to RHD. The car won a number of concour events in Australia. Ken sold the car but not sure who to and where the car is now. Gavin King www.concours.com.au

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
